Universal back-projection algorithm for photoacoustic computed tomography

Abstract

We report results of a reconstruction algorithm for three-dimensional photoacoustic computed tomography. A universal back-projection formula is presented for three types of imaging geometries: planar, spherical, and cylindrical surfaces. A solid-angle weighting factor is introduced in the back-projection formula to compensate for the variations of detection views. A method for implementing this algorithm is described. Numerical simulation is used to demonstrate the performance of the algorithm.
